Typical Japanese textbooks for foreigners will start off teaching hiragana and katakana first right before when they first learn one component of a Japanese grammar.
It's just a quasi-standard practice among Japanese textbook makers and it's a very well-proven way to learn Japanese without a sudden hassle.
If you compare Japanese teaching resources for English speakers in the 1980s and most of today's, you'll find several significant differences.
